dannythefox Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 I bet this is more to why Pearson was sacked a disagreement on transfers, probably because he knows Austin is not worth 15m and it will upset the strikers at the club.
Babylon Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Big fan of Austin but surely, given we've signed three players under another manager, the new one will want to put his own list forward? Perhaps that's the point, they don't want someone who decides the players. They are happy with our scouting system and just want a head coach.
BlueBoy1 Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Wouldn't get rid of vardy. Two England strikers together up front...you can imagine the gold that could bring! Would rather keep vardy than ulloa IF Austin signed
simon789us Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Big fan of Austin but surely, given we've signed three players under another manager, the new one will want to put his own list forward? Nuge Defo but think kram will be loaned out Reckon this will see both Vardy and Nugent go should it happen.

Guest kristianity77 Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 If Austin comes in then you'd imagine Ulloa would be the one to make way if any of them do and Austin is probably a better player than Ulloa and a direct replacement of sorts.
JAPANFOX1 Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Fantasy football stuff and all thanks to the $$$$$$ of the owners - we should be so lucky to be throwing around 12 million pound bids for an England international. In the owners we have to trust. To the next level. BOOM !!
Wymsey Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 If we get a new manager in, and our owners are signing players, then he'll be unsettled/unsure in terms of what is the best team to play.
kingfox Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Ulloa, Vardy, Kramaric & Nugent out. Okazaki, Austin, Drogba & Van Persie in.

Reckon this will see both Vardy and Nugent go should it happen. Perhaps more likely Kramaric and Nugent to go? Rumours about Kramaric (admittedly very tenuous), and I cant see Nuge getting much game time.
tom_kettering Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 4 pages and nobody has posted a YouTube montage or told us how good he is on FM.
Corky Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Perhaps that's the point, they don't want someone who decides the players. They are happy with our scouting system and just want a head coach. If Hiddink is the preferred choice, do you think he'd work under those terms and conditions?
Steve Earle Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 The logic is quite simple I think. You need two good players in every position, or at least among the forwards, where playing the full 90 minutes isn't the norm. So we'd have Okazaki and Mahrez as false 9s, Vardy and Kramaric as very different striking options,and Ulloa and Austin as target men/hold up players. Looks good to me. Thanks Nuge for everything, especially playing with a smile on your face.
Kitchandro Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Perhaps more likely Kramaric and Nugent to go? Rumours about Kramaric (admittedly very tenuous), and I cant see Nuge getting much game time. Why on earth would we let a young exciting prospect like krama go just 6 months after signing him for £9-10m? We'd have to stupid as fvck.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 All these strikers can only mean one thing, 'Arry is about to be appointed
Dan Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 If Hiddink is coming in, remember he likes playing a 433. This explains the mass of strikers. Either that or Top thinks if we buy all the strikers, nobody else will have any. Good plan. Three out and out centre forwards, or one central striker with two wide forwards? Because Austin isn't a wide forward, Okazaki doesn't strike me as a wide forward, Ulloa isn't a wide forward, Kramaric isn't a wide forward (though probably has the capability to do so) Vardy could do it, Nugent isn't. This makes no sense to me what so ever. Bloody hell there were people unsure we even needed Okazaki, let alone Austin as well, unless it means Ulloa's off. Trying to have faith but I can't see this all ending well.
Dylster Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 I hope Kramaric doesn't go now. Definitely don't think we've seen the best out of him yet.
benpicko Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Was the 'fundamental difference in perspective' Pearson saying we didn't need 20 strikers? Even the owners said that we wouldn't likely be looking for new forwards but needed to strengthen the midfield and defence.
Bamba's Babes Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Yes people, we do need another striker because Nugent is bleeding awful, Wood has been sold, Vardy doesn't score enough (we know his game about more than goals, granted), Kramaric and Okazaki are virtually untested and Ulloa could quite easily be a one hit wonder. No, they're not going to all play at once but neither did Rooney, RVP and Falcao or Drogba, Remy and Costa or Giroud, Welbeck and Walcott but you didn't hear their fans say "no we don't want them because we only want 11 players who are going to play every game this season" did you? This bleeding forum!
CosbehFox Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 I'm trying not to be negative as a whole but it's a poor move for me as its simply identified that we have money to burn. Every player we enquire for at the moment will have a couple of million added on as its clear we will pay top dollar.
Babylon Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 If Hiddink is the preferred choice, do you think he'd work under those terms and conditions? By the sounds of some of the articles, that's exactly what he wanted.
Stevosevic Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Pearson has always said he likes to have alot of strikers. That's why he wanted two in January and only got one,
notnow john Posted 3 July 2015 Posted 3 July 2015 Before QPR bought him he failed the medical at Hull because of knee problems. Possibly why he's not been snapped up.
